[QUOTE="redneckdan, post: 2022402, member: 8932"] Id go with the Savage 110 tactical or desert tactical in 6.5 creedmoor. Id put a SWFA 10x or 12x scope on it. The 6x is a handicap at the range. I have shot a deer at 50yds and antelope at 600 with the 10x. This model of savage has an aluminum bedding block and is pretty stiff for a factory plastic stock. First picture is my desert tac in 6 creedmoor at 100yds. This is the dtac bullet. I picked up a remington 700 long range last year, I am having accuracy issues with it. Sounds like I am not alone. I have not been too impressed with the sub $1000 Tikka factory plastic stocks. I dont think they are much better than a savage 12FV, the stocks anyway. The ruger americans are accurate but again whippy plastic factory stocks. 2nd picture is my gowild in .308 win with 125gr tnts @ 100yds. This has a 12x swfa off the 700LR. Was checking for scope issues by swapping it to a known accurate rifle, obviously the scope isn't the problem here. [/QUOTE]
